Saguaro Goldfinch and Flowers
14x11 mixed media and collage on Crescent matboard done last part of May. Using felt tip, ink, and acrylic markers, I colored in the flowers and saguaro. Various papers were cut and glued to the image. Lastly I cut out a watercolor goldfinch bird from my sketchbook and adhered it to the top floral area. Dilute white acrylic was lightly washed over the too pink background to tone it down. All in all, a fun creative piece that would fit into anyone's decor.

Another Confetti Cactus
Another Confetti Cactus
8x5.5 mixed media using acrylics and ink in new junk journal from the 1940s I created last month. This is the third fun yet funky decorated cactus I have done. The first one has gone to its new home so still have the second and this one. No two are alike.
